underground there's a brave new world
it's always night in Japan
cameras witness long slim legs
it's always night in Japan
as the old world melts
we slide on rails
moved into the light
we are never denied
we are never deprived
the robots of night
we're in the world of the rising sun
still it's always night in Japan
everything shines so bright
the burning colours leaving you blind
blinded by the neon disarray
it's like a starship this land
on display are the brands of today
a beautiful castle of sand
you don't have to sleep
you don't have to breath
in this high-tech mirage
still you've got tatooed
all over your back
the signs of the past
we're in the world of the rising sun
still it's always night in Japan
everything shines so bright
the burning colours leaving you blind
inside the cage of the dragonfire
it’s always night in Japan
follow the frame of light
the burning colours leaving us blind
